I was wondering if anyone knew why my upper body will not grow as much as my lower body has grown. Over 2 months my legs have steadily strengthened, going from a 225lb squat to 290lb. My upper body in the mean time, my bench has only gone from 205lb to 215lb. I work out both aspects of my body equally. Can anyone explain this?

When I sit and my muscles are relaxed I can cross my legs without any problems and when I stand and walk for about 100 to 150 ft everything is normal. BUT after that, my muscles in my back and legs become so tight that they pull me to the left so much that it actually makes one leg shorter than the other, causing pain in my back, hips and left knee. And when I sit back down, my leg and back muscles are so tight that I cannot cross my legs no matter how hard I try. I’ve seen a chiropractor, podiatrist, and family doctor. I have worn custom made orthotics (1 year) posture control insoles (10 months) and all kinds of heel lifts. NONE of these things has helped. Could this be some sort of muscle syndrome and what muscle group controls crossing your legs. Any help would be greatly appreciated. THANKS

The prick-style stings feel like insect bites. They are all over but random: back, legs, arms, etc. Sometimes they are sharp, some mild. I am a clean freak: wash sheets regularily, clean room, etc. There is never any after-evidence: no bumps, redness, nothing.

Last night, I was at a party and I was probably dancing for two or two and a half hours, and when I woke up, my thighs were in pain, and now my legs. I was basically “grinding” the whole night. Is this normal? Can I ease the pain in any way? whenever I walk my legs hurt! and I also have to go shopping tomorrow, which requires walking, so if there is a way, what’s quickest?

I was just wondering, if you’re diagnosed with a broken leg at the hospital. Do they straight away start on the casting or does anything else happen first?

Also what are the steps exactly that doctors take when casting legs or such?

My pelvis region has an ache, like the baby is lying constantly on that area? It aches to stand on one leg and turn over in bed using one leg at a time. I find that when I move, I need to move both legs together all the time. I feels muscular but not sure. Has anyone else experienced this?

I am 32 weeks with this pinching feeling on the left side. It’s been doing it for a few days now and at first it was on the left side on the top of my belly. but now it is on the left side on the side of my belly near my back. Is this normal and what is it?

Also I feel this pain and pressure in my pelvic area when I move my legs around (like when I toss and turn at night). It feels like the bone is hurting. Is this normal and what is it?

I have been having right side abdominal pain for over a year now, and it has progressively gotten worse. When it gets really bad, i also spike a fever. Recently, it has also been having spasms where it “rumbles & vibrates”, it almost feels like something is about to explode. the pain is severe, and it is like tearing and throbbing, it’s very hard to explain the sensation. any advice would be greatly appreciated. i have been to many different doctors, and they can find nothing. i also have a history of gastric ulcers and severe food allergies…i don’t know if that has anything to do with this.my bowels are normal. and i eat very healthy (i’m under a dietician). it’s really acting up right now and it also hurts to walk and move or do anything, i have a fever of 101.5. help please. like i said, i have been to many doctors, and have many tests done (most of which were performed a year ago) and everything has come back seemingly normal, but now it’s so much worse. like i feel like im going to throw up i just feel horrible. help! i have been avoiding all of the foods that i am allergic to so i don’t think that that has anything to do with my side pain. i have also get hives/rash when it hurts really bad. they are just red spots that aren’t really raised. i also have poor circulation, and my legs are almost purple, but i’m not overweight at all!
i am a 16 year old female, and i have had sonograms, x-rays, blood work, ct scan. most of which were over a year ago, and it’s getting progressively worse. but the docs say that it doesn’t have anything to do with my cycle. oh and i’ve also had 2 endoscopys for my gastric ulcers that were caused by food allergies, but since i have kept the offending foods out of my diet, the ulcers have gone away. so, i don’t think that this contributes to my side pain. i really would like to get to the bottom of this, i have some more doctors appointments, but they are giving up as well. i can barely sleep the pain is so bad. i can barely walk, and when i do i walk with a limp cuz i can’t put full pressure on my right leg (same side as the abdominal pain). the pain is like parallel to my belly button, not right by my ribs though, it’s kinda between my rib and pelvic bone, more so right in the part where there are no bones. but if it was appendecitis, wouldn’t they have found something by now?

I have back pain almost all the time, but it turns into sharp pains when walking after laying on my side for any amount of time. Everything I read about how to help back pain is to lay on my side, anyone know why this would be happening? The sharp pain is so bad it almost makes my legs go out…Not good to have happen at 8 months pregnant
